Van Leeuwen Automotive strives to continuously optimise the added value we offer to our customers. We achieve this by combining our extensive experience in the European automotive industry with the Van Leeuwen Group’s leading position as an industrial distributor of steel pipes and bar steel.

We are a major worldwide supplier of steel pipe, bar and tube solutions. As a part of the Van Leeuwen Pipe and Tube Group we have built up a wealth of knowledge and expertise. This has enabled us to become a logistical specialist, focusing on customer-dedicated services and project management. We meet the requirements of Tier 1 and Tier 2 suppliers as well as those of Orginal Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs). 

Providing our customers with added value

We are able to efficiently organise and manage the supply chain from producer to end-user, thereby reducing the total costs for our customers. Corporate purchasing and a continuous focus on reducing project costs add to the price advantage we have over other industrial distributors. 

Our offices and warehouses are strategically located throughout Europe to supply our customer base with the required materials. Efficient and modern logistic systems enable Just In Time delivery, even directly to the assembly lines of our customers. We can link up to our customers’ Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) systems to supply according to their schedules and material demands. 

Customer-dedicated inventory means that our customers can use their floor space for added-value business, without being concerned with stock levels and locations.  

Additionally, we carry out first line treatments such as cutting, washing and deburring, as well as meeting our customers’ special packaging needs. Flexibility in logistics means that we can rely on our own vast network of suppliers and stocks, enabling last-minute deliveries to fulfil variations in our customers’ material demands.  

A strategic European network not only allows for strong corporate purchasing in the world steel market. We also offer outsourcing opportunities and the ability to deliver components according to drawings.
